Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Config setting to force all math operations to
 pass through BCMath library.

Do we have any solid data on the performance difference between arithmetic
operations with bcmath and without?  To me, that would be immensely helpful
in framing this.  I like the idea, but the potential performance drag
concerns me.  Knowing exactly how big a drag we're looking at would make it
easier to put this into some sort of context IMHO.
